Re: USFWS revised draft Land-based Wind Energy Guidelines
Dear Sirs,
These are the comments of Save the Eagles International (STEI) regarding the above subject.
A) - We believe the proposed Guidelines are replacing the precautionary principle with "adaptive management", which in essence means: build first and deal with real impacts on biodiversity later. This will have catastrophic consequences for many bird and bat species. But perhaps it already has, for this lax policy is not new to the Fish and Wildlife Service.
